Swinebag:
i should put that i editted my original post.

Before i played this hand i put him raising on the button 77+ Ax and broadway (editted version)

After this hand i adjusted it to what was in my original post (99+ AT+ and maybe KQ)

Mikeyboy9361:
1. Difficult to know what to put him on, we haven"t been playing with him, but a good ace or pair you would have thought he would have raised, so I will go with the consensus that he has a weak ace or maybe face cards, may be even suited connectors.

2. No, you shouldn"t, what were you hoping to hit? A 3? 33?. But the ace came and you followed through which was what you had to do.

3. I wouldn"t call this bet, you still have enough behind to rebuild, and you have got the button coming your way, so I would let him have it and wait for a better spot.

omg make your mind up  ::)   :D

his possible holdings - bluff or A2 , A4 - A9 , 55 , suited connecters
errr big range is it not !!! close one now , so its a fold..You have 7000 back which is still ideal for stealing with and if you double up it does give you a little bit more breathing space.

quote - 2. should I have even made up in the SB

NO - shove or fold  [my preference is shove , fold ok]

kinboshi:
I don"t mind shoving here, but I hate calling.

Hi shove screams a weak ace or a flush draw.  You"re not beating a weak ace and are at best looking to chop it, and against a flush draw you"re a small favourite.

However, if you"re looking to fold here to a re-raise then your bet was simply a steal rather than a bet for value.  No hand that you beat is going to call here (are they?).
